Best
practice for human development includes the brilliance of nature.\n
What if we could live in a world where looking into the eyes of children w
as like seeing lights for a better future?

\n

My Nature-Led Approach
guides children in becoming whole again. By using this approach\, you will
witness children become curious\, resilient\, joyful\, humans who will be
capable of solving the problems our world faces.

\n

The Nature-Led A
pproach Certification is a training and mentorship like no other. In this
fun and easy to digest training\, I weave together science\, immersive nat
ure connection\, developmental research\, and the neurological needs of ch
ildren. This comprehensive workshop and 9-month mentorship gives you the i
nsight\, tools and language you need to access all nature has to offer for
your program\, class or family.

and skill set that any professional working with kids (or people\, really)
needs to meet the demands of this societal and environmental moment and t
o create a hopeful\, healthy future.” – participant
